Avocados have become super popular in recent years.
After all, they’re delicious, good for you and are the perfect addition to a good brunch. But, though they may set our taste buds tingling, they aren’t that easy to prepare.
That’s why TV chef Gordon Ramsay recently revealed how to get the job done with ease. The cooking expert shared a simple trick in a recent TikTok video.
In a clip demonstrating what to do, he said: “So, that’s the stone right. So just be very careful with this bit. Just go in there like that, and then just twist and she comes out.
“And then from there, all we do here is just very gently go through, crisscross. Be careful – don’t go all the way through the skin. Go through, turn it around and then again. And then all you’re doing there is dicing it up inside but be very careful.”
After you’ve done this you need to get a little teaspoon and scoop out the flesh. This will then help the avocado to come out easily in little pieces.
Since he shared the video it’s been viewed over 70,000 times and hundreds of people have commented. They had all sorts of views on the chopping advice.
One person said: “Nobody else uses a spoon like me to scoop it out?” Another replied: “I wish I was as fast as Gordon.”
A third added: “Wow, I suddenly feel not afraid to handle an avocado.” Meanwhile, a fourth also commented: “You are the food whisperer Chef Ramsay.”
After cutting an avocado in half, you always need to remove the stone to scoop out the flesh. When doing this, it’s vital to be careful, as you need to use a knife.
Some people then scoop out the flesh before chopping it up, but Gordon advises people to score it first before removing the skin. There are all sorts of ways to do it, but Gordon’s method helps people to complete the task with ease.
You never know, it may just change the way you chop forever. After all, people on social media were left very impressed with the advice.
